Flatliners (2017)
Goddamn this was bad. Full disclosure: I've never seen the original, so I can't compare...but fuck me, what an awful movie. Clichéd, afterschool special nonsense. Lame jump scares, generic set pieces and absolutely no reason to care about anything that's happening.
All the characters are cardboard cutouts, none of them ever feel like real people - the cast isn't terrible, but they're fighting an uphill battle against a godawful script.
Ugh. This is the worst thing I've seen in theaters in years, and I didn't even have high expectations.
